FREDRICK J. LINDGREN, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT.

GARMENT-SUPPOBTER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed me 7, 1915. Serial No. 32,609.

To all whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, FREDRIOK J. LIND- GREN, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Supporters, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in garment supporters and its object is to produce a device of this class that is simple in construction and operation and cheap to.

manufacture. With the foregoing and other objects in view the invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter fully described in the following specification, pointed out. in the claim and illustrated in the accompanying drawing which forms a part of said specification and in which Figure 1 is a front view of my device.

Fig. 2 is an edge view of the same.

Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view taken on line 7-7 of Fig. 1.

Like reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views.

My clasp is formed of two separated members A and B. The member A comprises'a cross pin to engage with the suspension tape 2, said pin carrying the integral depending coils C and D which are disposed opposite each other and from which the material is projected inwardly to form shoulders F, F

and then downwardly to form the tapered loop G. The member B terminates in eyes which engage the cross pin of member A and from said eyes the material extends downward in parallel planes to the points H, H when the portions converge topoints I, I and then parallel again as at J, J and terminate in the eye K which is disposed within the loop G. The material of the member B is curved about the member A in such a manner as to intersect the plane of the member A as clearly shown, with the result that their free terminations are projected into the same plane and a garment placed between said terminations is frictionally supported thereby.

What is claimed is A garment-supporter, including two members, one member having depending therefrom at its ends and in continuation thereof opposed spring-coils, said coils themselves having in continuation inwardly extending portions, the latter terminating in a tapering loop, the legs of which loop are at rightangles to said inwardly extending portions, the other member also forming a tapering loop the legs of which loop terminate at their upper ends in eyes receiving said member having end coil-springs, said legs ex tending along parallel lines a short distance vertically, said parallel portions themselves being extended into convergent portions, the latter terminating along parallel lines in a resilient coil, the legs thereof crossing the legs of the first referred to loop.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
